Answer to Question #154256 in Organic Chemistry for 123

Question

1,How is an orbital different than an orbit? 

2,Draw an energy level diagram for bromine 

Answer 1

Solution

1.

An orbit is a stable trajectory of a massive body moving around another massive body in space. The ISS is in orbit around the Earth, the Moon also rotates around it, the Earth is in orbit around the Sun.

Orbital - the space where the probability of finding an electron in an atom is maximum. In chemistry, there are s, p, d, f orbitals.
